Playing piano, B3 andvarious keyboards, Michael Echaniz leads a core team of Jeff Denson/b-voc, Dillon Vado/dr-perc and vocalists Molly Pease-Daniel Wertz through a mix of post bop instrumentals and poppish vocals pieces. Of the former, Wertz teams u for the “rologue” with Pease teams up with tenor saxist Dann Zinn on “Everything Is Embarrasing”. Some dancing ivories take place on the instrumental moments of “Proxima Centauri”, the Chopinish “Interlude” and bouncy “Prince of Darkness” . Some horns join in for a Latin fest of “Gernika” with Silvestre Martinez hitting the congas, and a string Friction Quartet takes part of the wild ride of “Fantaisie”. Lots of moods, what’s tying it all together?
